Thirty-Six Years and Counting!

Another year has gone by since I posted about our anniversary last year. The time seems to fly, doesn't it?
I told the story of our meeting and subsequent marriage here if you'd like to read it. There's still much to tell, but not enough time today, so I'll just show you this picture of us before we were married, taken at Whale Beach (next to Palm Beach), NSW, Australia, where I grew up. Gosh, we were young! Ah yes, I remember it well :)




Happy Anniversary to my dear husband.
It's been a wonderful 36 years!
Thank you! Posted by Picasa

Hello Kerri.
Just called by to thank you for the get well wishes you sent me and I’m greeted with this lovely picture of you and Ross, what a beautiful couple you are! Happy Anniversary to you both and may the years ahead be enriched with good health and continued happiness.

I have a lot of catching up to do Kerri, but I’m back into blogging again, encouraged very much by John I have to say. I did have problems with my ‘comment facility’, somehow it got switched off, but I’m pleased to say its working ok now. Have a great day. Love - Marion

Dearest Kerri and Ross - CONGRATULATIONS on 36 years and one day of a wonderful marriage.

I hope the next 36 years and one day will be just as rewarding.

I love the photo. Just taken at the weekend with the new camera, was it???

Congrats! We just celebrated 31 years, ourselves. What zone are you gardening in? I am in zone 5 in Utah

Midlife Mom said...[Reply]

Happy anniversary to both of you! We will celebrate 36 years on May 8th. Time sure goes by fast, I just can't hardly compute that that many years have flown by. Very lovely picture of you and your hubby! You really haven't changed that much, you are very young looking now. We got 5 inches of rain in the last couple of days from the nor'easter so most of the snow is gone and we have mud. The birds have been getting bugs out of it and having a feast. Oh how I yearn to get into my gardens and get some color going!

Mountain Mama said...[Reply]

Happy Anniversary to you both. These days it's rare for a couple to have a marrige last this long. You certainly are to be congratulated. You are a beautiful couple!

Congratulations Kerri. What a wonderful achievement and the smiles you wear in this photo don't seem to be too different than the smiles we see in your other photos of you and Ross.

Happy anniversary, dear Kerri! Oh my, 36 years, that's a lot. At the time when you got married, I even wasn't born yet! All the best for you both for many more happy years!

By the way, you look a bid like your daughter on that old photo!

See there, blondes do have more fun! You must be 2 yrs old in that photo if you have been married 36 years - you still look so young! Congratulations!

Happy Anniversary Kerri and Ross!! l just got back from reading your post of one year ago. What a wonderful story of how you both met and how much your love endured- some couples are just meant to be! You look so beautiful on your wedding day Kerri and Ross is just dashing in his uniform. You look so great together. The photo of you with your mum tells a story all on its own. Tears came out at that point. l remember getting married and having to leave my mum to live in America too. That was hard.
Much love Kerri- glad to be back and catching up. Looking at the pictures below- fantastic to see the snow clearing and flowers appearing!
